Title: Diary/notebook with original art work
Author: Gennert, Emil F - ILLUSTRATED DIARY
Seller: Palinurus Antiquarian Books (United States)
Condition: Good; clean throughout; front cover missing; first few leaves with chipped edges and a light, small tide mark along the edges.
Description: [New York]: Unique., 1928 - 1935. In an archival box.. Good; clean throughout; front cover missing; first few leaves with chipped edges and a light, small tide mark along the edges.. Oblong folio that meas. appx. 11 x 16 inches; appx. 170 pages. Each page with an original watercolor or pen & ink sketch accompanied by mounted photographs and often by news articles with hand-written commentary. Gennert, a German immigrant to the United States, lived most of his life (1854 - 1935) in New York City. He apparently spent time in Pennsylvania, given the references in this diary. It is an unusual compilation of a self aware, curious individual with political and artistic interests. He served as a drummer boy for the 96th New York Regiment during the Civil War (a mounted photograph in uniform in the diary is self identified) and had a career as an electrical inventor who held several patents assigned to the Manhattan Brass Company and E P Gleason Manufacturing Co. The diary however, does not deal with his business accomplishments. It is focused on events, places, historical incidents, architecture, and people he knew. It is retrospective and apparently accomplished in the last decade of his life. Gennert lived through one of the most transformative periods in American history, including WWI and then the stock market crash of 1929. The overall tone of the diary is patriotic and suffuses the entries throughout. Despite this he could also be quite acid in his observations on society or the actions of those around him or in political life. There are several illustrated scenes of what could only have been childhood reminiscences of Pennsylvania country life that are unlikely to be recorded elsewhere. A remarkable, illustrated, record of a life.
